Natural Skin Care Right From Nature

By: Johanna Myers

Natural skin care is a topic that people today are beginning to gravitate toward. While there has been remarkable discoveries in the laboratory in creating antiaging skin care solutions the most inviting are those solutions that come from nature. Starting from that point nature begins with what we put inside our bodies as we truly "are what we eat". Our skin reflects what goes into our system in terms of quality foods that contain the necessary vitamins and minerals that make our appearance vibrant and youthful. Beauty is an inside job.

The topical approach to natural skin care is also an important consideration. Since most antiaging skin care routines start with a clean face let's start there. While doing my own research I've come up with three different types of soap that not only use natural ingredients but have also been proven to help your skin keep that healthy glow. Part of my search revealed information about olive oil soap. Antioxidants are important in protecting the skin from the sun and enviromental elements and can be found in olives. The second soap that got my attention was Black Soap or Anago, named after the Anago language of Nigeria, which is made from pure oils, butters and roasted plants. It's emollient properties have a healing affect that is unique in the marketplace. Have a look at some patented soaps that are produced in Texas. The patented Texas skin care soaps are made from the finest ingredients; many of their ingredients are homegrown.

Another important step in our antiaging skin care routine is to check out skin care lotions and creams. With so many of these products on the market it's hard to know where to start. One thing we know for sure: It's important to be able to closely check all the ingredients in a lotion or cream to be sure the product is formulated from truly natural resources. Unfortunately natural skin care products are not regulated in the United States so you have to read the labels carefully to be sure they don't contain any synthetic ingredients as some can actually be harmful to the skin. The Internet isn't always the best place to find natural skin care products as they often don't list all of the ingredients. New Zealand is known for producing some of the best natural skin care products in the world. The testing process they use to determine the purity of their skin care products is one of the best in the world. When they say there are no artificial ingredients in their lotion or creams you can believe it is true.

Ingredients to look for in your search for natural skin solutions are Aloe Vera, calendula, green or white tea, chamomile, seed oil, soy oil, and pomegranite. What is little known about collagen is that, when applied topically, it cannot be absorbed through the skin so be careful when purchasing products that claim that collagen extracts are present.

Since finding the correct natural skin care product has its challenges, it's probably wise to talk to a skin care professional and/or check with a highly qualified nutritionist. However, if you feel comfortable doing it on your own, remember this: Don't rely solely on the product's advertisements, and carefully check out all the ingredients. Keep in mind as you do your research the old saying, "What you see is what you get."
